Lexus confirms LC will end production after 2026 model year

Lexus confirmed the LC 500 will be discontinued after the 2026 model year and that current production will continue through August 2026, according to a dealer letter reported to Car and Driver and a company statement.

The automaker provided the confirmation to the publication and told dealers the two‑door coupe and convertible will not return beyond the 2026 run.

Who is involved: Lexus issued the guidance, dealers received the production schedule, and Car and Driver verified the company statement.

Why it matters: the decision removes one of Lexus’s last V8 halo cars from the lineup, will change parts and service planning for dealers, and is likely to push prices and collector interest for remaining examples.

Consequences include fixed end‑of‑production timing, a tighter used market, and a shift in Lexus’s performance strategy toward future electrified models.
